While United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions are widely studied, there is only limited information about their authors. Previous studies have argued that the states that draft resolutions exert sizeable influence over their content, but the lack of comprehensive data has hindered any systematic investigations into their agency, role and motivation when authoring resolutions. This article introduces the United Nations Security Council Resolution Authors (UNSCRA) dataset, which collects information on sponsors (1990–2023) and lead negotiators (2008–2023) for 2,179 drafts tabled at the United Nations Security Council, and illustrates its value through descriptive analysis. UNSCRA provides unique insights on drafts (e.g. agenda items and votes) and author profiles (e.g. numbers and regional distribution). The data coded on a draft-specific level open new avenues for research on states’ influence and interests at the UNSC.

UNSCRA 数据集简介：编写安理会决议草案，1990-2023 年


虽然联合国安理会 （UNSC） 决议被广泛研究，但关于其作者的信息有限。以前的研究认为，起草决议的国家对其内容施加了相当大的影响，但缺乏全面的数据阻碍了对其在起草决议时的能动性、作用和动机的任何系统调查。本文介绍了联合国安理会决议作者 （UNSCRA） 数据集，该数据集收集了提交给联合国安理会的 2,179 份草案的提案国（1990-2023 年）和首席谈判代表（2008-2023 年）的信息，并通过描述性分析说明了其价值。UNSCRA 提供了关于草稿（例如议程项目和投票）和作者简介（例如数字和区域分布）的独特见解。在特定草案层面编码的数据为 UNSC 研究国家的影响和利益开辟了新的途径。
